Conditionals can now be used, with the restriction that the "type" field and the appropriate "main-is" or "test-module" field must be specified together in any conditional branch where they occur.

patch applied (cabal-install): "Generalise the constraint set ADT in a couple ways" and 11 others
by Duncan Coutts 18 Apr '11

18 Apr '11

Sat Mar 26 10:16:58 PDT 2011 Duncan Coutts <duncan(a)community.haskell.org> * Generalise the constraint set ADT in a couple ways We now track target packages and only require constraints on those targets to be satisfiable. This allows us to overconstrain packages that we do not care about, which is useful for excluding broken packages. We also now have a more general way of specifying constraints. Previously constraints were specified as the conjunction of a version range predicate and an optional installed constraint. This form made it impossible to express constraints such as "exclude this source package". Constraints for a package name are now specified simply by a function predicate on the package version and installed/source state.

This relies on two recent features: 1. we can now express constraints that exclude a particular source package and 2. that we can exclude packages without needing to know whether or not they will ever be needed.
